Description

Begin your adventure with a private pickup from your hotel or Airbnb in Reykjavík. Travel in comfort with complimentary Wi-Fi, a bottle of water, an Icelandic non-alcoholic drink, and a tasty protein bar. Guests also receive an instant Polaroid-style photo Head to Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates drift apart. This is also the birthplace of Iceland’s first parliament, Alþingi, founded in 930 AD. Fun fact: It was featured in Game of Thrones as the land “Beyond the Wall,” and it’s the only place on Earth where you can dive between two continents. Öxarárfoss Waterfall, located in Þingvellir National Park, cascades down ancient cliffs, creating a stunning scene in the heart of Iceland’s history At Efstidalur Farm & Ice Cream Barn, enjoy fresh homemade ice cream while watching the cows in the barn — a perfect taste of authentic Icelandic rural life. Continue to Brúarfoss, the stunning “Blue Waterfall,” famous for its bright turquoise glacial waters and peaceful atmosphere — a true hidden gem often missed by larger tours. Fun fact: Its water is so vividly blue that travelers often call it the bluest waterfall in Iceland! Next, visit the Geysir Geothermal Area, home to Strokkur, which erupts every few minutes up to 30 meters high. Marvel at the power of Gullfoss Waterfall, the spectacular “Golden Falls,” often crowned with rainbows on sunny days. Then, stop at Friðheimar Tomato Farm, a geothermal greenhouse restaurant where tomatoes grow year-round under warm light. Friðheimar is one of the most popular stops on our route and often operates at full capacity. To guarantee table seating and the full dining experience, reservations must be made at least one week in advance. Guests without a prior reservation are still very welcome to visit, enjoy the beautiful greenhouse atmosphere, and taste the famous tomato soup. However, table seating cannot be guaranteed without advance booking and is subject to availability. We highly recommend booking early to secure the best possible experience. Then explore the colorful Kerið Crater, a volcanic caldera formed about 3,000 years ago, with red slopes surrounding its vivid blue lake. Fun fact: Thanks to its amazing acoustics, musicians sometimes perform live concerts right inside the crater If time doesn’t allow for a stop in Hveragerði, we’ll enjoy a scenic drive through the area, taking in its beautiful landscapes along the way. Your day ends filled with unforgettable landscapes, warm local experiences, and a few unique Icelandic touches that make this journey truly one of a kind.
